In order to improve participation in projects and acquire feedback we needed a method of getting together to be able to discuss the work we were doing.

The Local Government Online Network is a great tool for working through a project from conception right through to completion. You can have the BeingThere meeting and update the CEO’s, the elected member group, consultants, or contractors on the status of the project scope.

Instead of it just being an email with a project update, you can actually talk it through, share documents, and show the workings rather than just over the phone or a teleconference, it’s really interactive.

Apart from the cost benefits, just being able to have that face-to-face communication across the distance is amazing for interaction with staff...

The shire of Derby and West Kimberley covers an area of 118 000 square kilometers, and we service two main town areas, which are 260 kilometers apart.

We use the Local Government Online Network for a lot of management interaction in lieu of phone calls, because we’re dialing in several different people from all over our shire.

Apart from the cost benefits, just being able to have that face-to-face communication across the distance is amazing for interaction with staff, and seeking feedback.

From our perspective, it would be wonderful to get better buy-in to the Local Government Online Network from some government agencies. Anything we can do to have more people on the network would help us a huge amount.

This is a very powerful tool to incorporate in business to make sure people develop within their job....

Online training is good but being able to interact over the Local Government Online Network you don’t miss out on the camaraderie and networking opportunities you have in the classroom.

Being able to interact with other people over the network is such a valuable learning tool. You don’t know what you don’t know and hearing other people’s experiences and challenges could be something you hadn’t considered.

This is a very powerful tool to incorporate in business to make sure people develop within their job.
